Or train tracks to the desert nowhere… because that is actuakky the ancient shores of a mega lake that will again fill They are smart long range the chinese Sadly the nasty islamist saudis got the oil and now they get the new grow zones too Adapt2030 on rumble, youtube plus suspicious observers youtube for solar cycles |

| #4 Mr. Wife and his group were working on a new laundry detergent formula at the Jeddah factory in 1987, Mike. All the finished product stored on pallets under canvas in the courtyard — because it’s always hot and sunny there, right? — washed away. /all the obvious jokes apply. |

| #3 ...April of '95, while I was in KSA, they had a week straight of rain, giving us the nickname 'the Spring Break rotation'. There was literally no way to get to Al-Kharj from Riyadh. Best part though was one senior NCO decided he was going to go to work just to prove a point. So, grabbing one of the couple dozen Land Cruisers we had at our disposal, he managed to make it to the town proper and almost got to the base. See, you had to drive through a pretty good-sized swamp just north of the town to get to the base. That swamp was the sewage lagoon for the good people of Al-Kharj, and he managed to go off the road and sink the Land Cruiser. Mike |

| #2 Some long time ago, in a driving lesson, my Dad opined: "You can never tell how deep a puddle is from the top." Thru a number of misadventures, that life rule remains. |
